Tokyo - Japanese for Giant Disappointment

I think anyone that's ever had an interest in Japan has had a dream of one day visiting Tokyo. I too used to have dreams... which were crushed by the twenty-seven ton force compactor known as reality. Perhaps it was living in Kansai for four months before traveling to Tokyo, but amidst a few interesting sites I found nothing but disappointment. Really, it wasn't that much different from Osaka; except that it was way more spread out and the atmosphere totally sucked in comparison.
It really isn't a bad place, I swear, but the expactations were just too high. By all means, take a trip to Tokyo, just don't go to Kansai first.
